Frequently Asked Questions
For the best sound, put the microphone about 6-12 inches away from your mouth. Tilt it slightly upwards, with the front facing you. This helps the microphone pick up your voice clearly and reduces background noise.
NZXT CAM is not required for basic recording. However, installing it unlocks advanced features like RGB customization, gain control, and advanced DTS settings.
Just screw the microphone onto the stand. Then, you can adjust the angle until it's in the perfect spot. Make sure the stand is sitting firmly on your desk.
The microphone features a standard 3/8” thread for mounting. If your boom arm uses a different thread size, use the included adapter for easy compatibility.
